The Truth of Interpersonal Violence, with Nancy O'Malley, District Attorney (retired)

This is a raw, powerful episode. Nancy is a national victim's rights leader and wrote the preface in Nadia's memoir, Home is Within You. As a result of a violent assault that included strangulation, Nancy and other leaders championed changes to strangulation laws, investigations, and findings. Please be advised that Nancy and Nadia discuss aspects of interpersonal violence and abuse as well as why trauma-informed practices and investigations are critical to finding the truth. How can trauma informed responses and media coverage increase public safety and awareness? What are the causes of victim-blaming? How can we reduce the shaming of survivors' responses to interpersonal violence? Nadia shares a tragic life-changing adult-trauma and the gratitude in knowing it at least resulted in positive change for other survivors. THANK YOU Nancy O'Malley!
